Back to the Destiny of X flagship for another installment of Quiet Council intrigue!

Note: There's a pretty long pre-ramble this time out, so for "Just the X", feel free to skip ahead to around the 25 minute mark.

We've got another solid issue today, but one where there are some moments where I feel like we need to squint and tilt our head to make 'em "work". Maybe I'm just an idiot? You be the judge, dear listener!

It's a brand-new era... with your same old host, now with extra Covid!

It's time for us all to be flies on the wall to witness the machinations and maneuvering of the Quiet Council... which is somehow some of the most interesting X-Stuffs to come down the pike yet!

An excellent start to the Destiny of X era... and an issue I can't wait to hear your thoughts on!

Running headfirst (repeatedly) into a "roadblock" episode -- covering a book I wasn't exactly looking forward to having to talk about. Gonna have to pull out the ol' X-Men Green disclaimer: I did not like this issue -- if that in any way offends you or threatens to ruin your day, feel free to skip!

Plus: Yer humble host does some A/X/E prep, by introducing himself to the current volume of Eternals! I talk Eternals (vol.5) #1 cover-to-cover right here!

A most awkward episode in which your humble host stumbles and fumbles his way toward x-plaining how he feels this issue fell a bit short. Marvel at my ability to ride the fence in attempt to not inadvertently insult anybody!

An important issue and an important discussion... that kinda misses the mark, and is priced WAY out of whack at $10 USD. For better or worse, we're going to talk all about it.

Also: Mailbag, some news, and (since this IS the July Finale) the X-Book Sales Charts for April, 2021!
